99' 360 Dodge Ram Remote mount turbo

[colimenco]

why did you put the muffler before the turbo?

[87DodgeD150]

looks good. im thinking about doing this to my 87 d150

[littlejimmy216]

your cousin isnt by chance named justin is he?

[tman2awsm]

@tierodkill thanks alot. And that will fit right on my 5.9 intake?

[tman2awsm]

where did you get your turbo inlet tube that goes into the intake thats all I have left to get and mine will be done... Just wondering

[TieRodKLL]

@tman2awsm Summitracing Part Number: TNT-10351

[1KUSTOMIZER]

Crush Bent Intake Pipes = FAIL

[likeshisbike]

How much horsepower did it make? STS also claims increased fuel mileage, did your cuz see any increase?

[ThatOneGuy4947]

also should i but a tuner or just play with the timing or what?

[ThatOneGuy4947]

hey what turbo is that i got ahlod of a gm-8 turbo from a humvee and its waste gated out to 7psi, i just wonder how you ran the oil to it cause thats my only snag right now

[sanchez7509]

Did you get that as a kit? If ever selling let me know

[TieRodKLL]

@sanchez7509 I built it from scratch. Not my truck, I did it for my cuz.

[MrAbbott26]

looks good man. im in the process of boosting my ram, but cannot find any info. what did you do about tunning, and fuel? and is there anything else i should know before i run into problems?

[TieRodKLL]

@MrAbbott26 I used Tom Fox tunning (714) 639-5220. You'll proly goin to replacing head gaskets soon. When I had the heads off this truck. I resealed the plenum gasket too.

[racerjustin06]

i love it.

im got all the stuff to do that to my ram but how did u tune it or did some one do for u.

[fictioussentiment]

What kind of turbo was that? I'm trying to find a turbo that I can use for my 98 Jeep with the 5.9l v8.... Want to hook it up remote style like this! I figure first step is to find a turbo, then find out about all the piping sizes I'll need

[FastZrider]

Love that sound, i would love to do that to my 5.9l 360, but how much did something like cost? I also am wondering if there's a way to hookup a turbo to get the sound, but not the extra power? Ive seen those cheap, exhaust clip on Turbo whistlers, but they dont sound good at all and look stupid.

[emaxxer1]

take off that flowmaster and put in a straight pipe cause the turbo will spool quicker and produce more boost due to the improved and more efficient flow. That flowmaster is just causing turbulence/back pressure before the turbo which is exactly what you don't want. Just my two cents... Love the 360 though, that's for sure!

[TieRodKLL]

Not true, the turbo is the biggest restriction so muffler doesn't effect it. I'm afraid that packing from the muffler will go through the turbo and damage it. Thats why I use flowmaster. I also tried it without the muffler and it had no effect on performance

[emaxxer1]

@TieRodKLL

that's very hard to believe since a flowmaster is probably the worst flowing off the shelf muffer you can buy (not talking about their race mufflers). I guess it doesn't effect your performance in this case since the turbo is so small. If you had a bigger turbo, you would see gains with the same about of boost but you would need to get rid of the muffler to see the full potential in a turbo'd setup.

[oubobcats27]

That is one of the best remote turbo truck videos I've seen... thanks for showing rev and launch and all that...good stuff go dodge

[VQ35S14]

is this a stock engine, im thinkin bout turboing my stock 360. thanks. nice setup btw

[TieRodKLL]

Bone stock

[VQ35S14]

@TieRodKLL how much boost can you run? and how long you think it will last? i have 120,000. lol

[TieRodKLL]

@VQ35S14 This truck had close to 200,000 on it. I was told the head gaskets go at 9 psi. This truck blew one at 5 psi but I have a friend thats running 15 psi on her durango and hasn't popped one yet.

[fordboy111591]

u shoulda put the flowbasterd after the turbo ur not gettin all u could get like that other than that 5 star man

[realskater91]

no intercooler? how good does it run when it gets hot

[goordoon24]

sounds real good. haha almost sounds like a powerstroke

[MikeyLikesNike]

there was this guy on youube who had alot of vids of his bro in laws 2000 360 turbo ram it was pretty fast and shit, but he deleted his account like two months ago unfortunatly

[HahnsB2]

That FlowShitter is really choking that setup, especially before the turbo like that...

Otherwise it's pretty cool!

[TieRodKLL]

Not true, the turbo is the biggest restriction so muffler doesn't effect it. I'm afraid that packing from the muffler will go through the turbo and damage it. Thats why I use flowmaster. I also tried it without the muffler and it had no effect on performance.

[02detroitmuscle]

i have a 02 ram with the 360. do u think the garret t28 is enough for a rear mount setup? i have two but only wanted to use one for ease of installation

[xXfirewood149Xx]

Hi dude i got a 98 ram 360 i wana do this same thing on my truck and i was wondering what was all needed to do this...were did you get the intake cap for the throttle body.

[turboshagna]

Rear mount turbo sounds fucking awesome!

I heard that you need to chose at least 1 stage smaller for the same application of conventional turbo setup, is this true? BTW having a slightly laggier larger exhaust trim or A/R ratio gives bigger HP gains for the same boost as smaller turbos. But lag is hella fun :-) and it's not as if it is critical that you need instant response for hardcore hill corners and competitive racing!

[scottmilkeway2]

hey i was wondering how u get ur oil supply for the bearings since its remote mount, i'd like to do this kinda DIY setup when i get a truck

[TieRodKLL]

Tap into an oil feed port of the engine. The engine will pump the oil to it.

[furious530]

any ecu tunning?

[TieRodKLL]

Yep! used PPH out of California

[furious530]

do you know how much hp u gained aprox

[TieRodKLL]

125hp

[mo15o]

Is there a lot of lag since the turbo is mounted so far away from motor. Just wonderin

[TieRodKLL]

A little but it isn't to bad. Going to a smaller exhaust housing woulda helped.

[dieseldog1321]

was it hard to put in

[TieRodKLL]

It was very easy! The hard part was 3 days later when it blew a head gasket and I had to pull the top end down.

[WARD5KUSTOMZ]

how hard to put Powerstroke turbo on my 86 f-150? it has the 302

[jacobnolting]

how much boost were you able to make

[TieRodKLL]

Because it's nonintercooler I limited it to 5 psi. But it will go higher. On a test run a hose goin to the wastegate came off and it surged to 10 psi before I let off!

[dustinwaller87]

bad ass but did u have to use a oil pump to suppply or drain the oil and if u did wat kind..??? plz help me!! im putting one in a f150

[TieRodKLL]

I got a pump from rbracing-rsr. Its the same as sts uses.

[jdsanchez473]

sounds like you could use some lower gears there.

[TieRodKLL]

it has 4.56 in it.

[jdsanchez473]

i'm not trying to all BS here but it sure sounded like it took forever to get threw 1st, and 2nd sounded like you were barley gaining rpm's.

[TieRodKLL]

The only time you can hear it shift is 2-3 shift. All others are drowned out but the turbo.

[dodge2289]

how much was it

[TieRodKLL]

Total for parts and the computer reflash was alittle less then $2500

[dodge2289]

thats not bad.... where did u get it cause i been looking

[TieRodKLL]

I built the kit myself.

[Cutegoofoff]

Does it make any difference if the muffler was mounted before or after the turbo?

[TieRodKLL]

It's better to mount it before. Any restrictions in the exhaust after the turbo will effect turbo lag. Best to use a chambered muffler or one with out packing. Packing can come lose and damage the turbo. I also used a 5" tail pipe. Gives the truck an awesome deep bassy sound.

[Cutegoofoff]

Did you do anything for fuel management? Or was everything left stock?

[TieRodKLL]

It has 24# injectors and the computer was reflashed by PPH. There was also a resister that need to be wired in to the MAP sensor.

[bpshunter]

Where do you get that Turbo??? I have a 97 Ram 360 with a cam and other light modifications.........I really want a turbo....BAD

[TieRodKLL]

It bought it used. It originally came with a STS kit for a Chevy truck.

[Gusto222]

... you couldn't shoot the vid during the day time.. w/ maybe more light...

[TieRodKLL]

Sorry, time was limited! And the truck went back to it's home, 6 hours away from me. But it did beat a car that went 15.00et!

[ArgentElizabethJane]

smile and wave!

[slim929rr]

thanks for that...cant wait to get it back...

[TieRodKLL]

Yea.. If I can keep from breakin it again! LOL
